    if hearns puts joshua v price and the ibf sanctions it.....thats a farginggg joke no way in hell does david price even come close todeserving a title shot ...personally i think it should be pulev who has been in training ....and just beat top contender chisora (after getting kod by wlad).....
    in this short time who can fight joshua out of the ibf ratings ? ...i say pulev ....hearns and the ibf should be shot if price gets a shot butthen again the ibf and wba sanctioned bowe v dokes (disgaracefull )....and sanctioned bowe v fergoson ( big deal he decisioned an unmotived ray mecer ....he had 6 losses before that yet the wba/ ibf sanction that garbage ?????

    your opinions? who deserves it ibf ratings only ...ps i heard molina also ..wtf ??

    They already offered it to pulev, they turned it down.

    Most likely it will be Molina since he's ranked in the top 10 by the IBF.

    Well honestly it should be someone ranked in the top 10.. out of the 3 named, Molina is the only one.

    Yeah, it's actually depressing, it's dragged on far too long, I personally think they should give December 10th a miss, just concentrate on a big fight in the new year.

    To me, why not. I have no problem with IBF ranking Jennings, but price? That would be stupid, but I guess I can understand why Hearn would want to do it... $$$$

    I know madness, Joshua only going to get better, defending the ebu title for half the money.

    Also Eddie Hearn interview in Germany where pulev walks past him and he asks him to fight Joshua next, not a very positive response.

    You don't know what terms Pulev was offered.

    Say you're Pulev, and you're mandatory for 2017. You are guaranteed 25% of the purse then without having to sign a rematch clause. Now AJ comes to Pulev and says "Hey you can fight me now instead of later, I offer you 10% of the purse. And you sign a rematch clause".

    If you were Pulev, what would you do?

    Or, much more likely Pulev wants to avoid another KO loss. Joshua would destroy him.

    Money is no excuse here, it would likely be his best payday to date.

    Pulev wants another big payday. You think he cares about being KO'd? I don't think he does as long as the paycheck is big enough.
